Handsome Jack here! I'm way too busy being awesome to answer the phone, but tell me why you're calling and if you're important enough, your people will hear from my people.
[Well what do ya know. That's an answer that Jack's not expecting, but is damn pleased to hear. Now that...that is encouraging. He knew he liked this kid for a reason. He lifts a hand and clicks his fingers at Manaka, in the 'you got it' gesture.]
Rats can fetch, you know. Go and get something and bring it back to ya. Athena could fetch, too. Not as well, but.... hell, what did I expect? I knew she was a messed up chick when I hired her, I thought that would work in my favor.
But you...you've nailed it, princess. She doesn't understand, none of'em do. They'd rather wallow in shit and eat garbage on a festering pus hole of a planet than let me fix things! I try and help, I devote my god damned life to helping those ungrateful sons of taints, and this is what I get?
[Talk about skagshit. No. No, this is not gonna stand. None of it.]

[Just as quickly as that change came over her, though, it's gone again, a bright smile breaking over Manaka's face.]
—Ah, but I was going to make you something to eat, wasn't I? Rest up, I'll have things ready in just a bit!
[Maybe she'll slip the wine in the fridge on the way.]
